Overall the new Escape and the smaller Puma, Ford is onto some really good product here - combine with Ranger/Everest and you've got a solid core lineup. Hope they keep winning comparos, and keep on-message with effective marketing.
I agree, the range is good and maybe with the new President a rethink on pricing has occurred.

I'd assume if V6 diesel hits Ranger then Everest will get it also, I just think the jump in $$ is too much from Escape AWD to Everest AWD and call me odd but I'd like something other than black for an interior.

Does anyone remember the very first media interior photos of the Everest which had what I guess was Cashmere in local Ford speak....looked a class above the black interior.

I'm still mulling over what I do car-wise next year and frankly if I want the towing ability of the Terry, but all the safety tech there isn't much with a RWD bias short of the Jeep, Merc & BMW and none in the Ford range with a high-end interior which is what I'd like.
